Blue Spotted Ribbontail Stingray - Taeniura lymma

Blue Spotted Ribbontail Stingray - Taeniura lymma is sometimes confused with the other Blue-Spotted Stingray (Neotrygon kuhlii). Taeniura lymma is more roundish in shaped and more pronounced blue spots and as its name of Ribbontail implies, there are blue stripes running along its tail/whip.

Although they are shy and usually found under rocks or ledges and tends to swim away from divers, they can still cause serious injuries to humans from their venomous spines on their tails.
